One of the recent Appcelerator/IDC reports revealed the mobile app development market today in statistical measures. The report revealed that HTML5 has been cited as important for mobile developers. iOS is doing well while Android has slipped a little in its efforts. As regards, Windows Phone 7, it is still interesting while BlackBerry has not managed to do something innovative and hence is down.

This report was extracted from the responses of a survey which included 2,173 mobile developers from more than 250,000 Appcelerator Titanium users.

Mobile app development is certainly on the rise and the demand is sky-high. More than half of the respondents of the survey revealed that they intend to accelerate their efforts in the mobile app development arena compared to 2010. Appcelerator users also thought that Apple's operating system takes the spotlight since more than 89% of the developers present showed their interest in creating apps for Apple’s iPhone and the iPad. Appcelerator Titanum developers also expressed interest for developing Android apps but the percentage was a drop of 4.7% from a quarter back at 78.6%.

Modest sales of Windows Phone 7 revealed that there was interest being generated on a moderate scale while Black Berry was not the preferred OS wherein apps were to be built since interest dipped to 15.5% from 20% in the last quarter. The developers also expressed interest in integrating cloud services for mobile apps based on location, notifications, ratings and reviews, photos and different places.

Titanium currently sits 4th on the list of tools that most developers prefer and are using it according to Vision Mobile reports.
